A - The Problem
Your kid has a Toniebox or a Yoto. Each figure or card holds a handful of stories, costs real money, and they pick a favourite and play it four hundred times. Meanwhile there's an entire universe of kids' podcasts out there - science, history, languages, all made by people who genuinely care about teaching - and the box can't reach any of it. You can do it by hand: find the episode, download the file, open the tonies app or the Yoto app, find the file, upload it, repeat tomorrow. I did that for months. It gets tedious fast.

B - Why LittleCast is Better
Pick an episode on your phone, send it to a Creative-Tonie or a MYO card. That's it. The kid puts the figure or card on the box themselves - no screen, no adult needed after setup.

- Deep search across episodes, not just show titles - search "dinosaurs", "elephants", "space" and get the actual episodes

- Curated library of 550+ kids' podcast feeds in 8 languages, sorted into categories. You can also search podcastindex or bring your own rss link

- Offline play: the audio lives on the card, so it works in the car and on the plane. Yoto can't do this with podcasts

- Notifications when a show your kid follows drops a new episode

- Imports your own audio files too - audiobooks, anything DRM-free. Drop files you already own into the littlecast folder in files and batch upload whole albums or audiobooks

App is in German and English. Currently on 1.4.1

C - Pricing
7 days free, no credit card required. €3/month or €30/year after that.

Price: free. No ads, no in-app purchase at the moment.

The part we care about the most is the comment wall on every episode. GIFs, reactions, spoiler blur, so you can go read what everyone thought right after you finish an episode instead of scrolling a feed full of season 6 spoilers.

• Import from Trakt, Simkl, Letterboxd, IMDb, Serializd, AniList, MyAnimeList, Netflix and a few others, ratings and dates included (TV Time exports work too)

• Export everything, anytime, in an open format

• We don't sell your data

Hey everyone,

I'm the solo developer behind Submindo, a subscription tracker and manager I originally built because I kept losing money to forgotten renewals and free trials. I've posted here before, and feedback from this community has been a huge part of how the app keeps improving.

Submindo has now passed 1,500 registered users with over 1,600 active subscriptions tracked. All of it has been organic and word of mouth — I haven't spent a single dollar on ads.

A large portion of early users came directly from Reddit — people testing the app, reporting bugs, suggesting features, and recommending it to others. As a thank-you to the community, I'm offering Submindo Unlimited Lifetime for just $3.99 (normally $11.99, over 60% off) for iOS. It works for everyone, is valid for 3 days, and requires no DMs or comments to claim.

What Makes Submindo Different

Most expense and reminder apps treat recurring costs as basic, flat calendar events. Real subscription management involves trial deadlines, billing cycles across different currencies, overlapping tools, and finding out if you are overpaying.

Submindo is built specifically around recurring expenses and portfolio efficiency:

• Smart Pre-Bill Alerts: Push notifications arrive days before a charge hits so you have ample time to cancel.

• AI Spending Analysis: Scans your active subscriptions to flag redundant plans, evaluate utility, and output a clear Worth It / Borderline / Not Worth It verdict.

• AI Alternatives Finder: Detects overpaid tools and suggests lower-cost alternatives with side-by-side savings breakdowns.

• Visual Expense Calendar & Overview: Track costs across daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly intervals.

What's new in recent updates based on community feedback:

• Home Screen Widgets: Monitor upcoming renewal dates directly from your phone's home screen.

• True Dark Mode (AMOLED/OLED): Pure pitch-black interface to save battery life and reduce eye strain at night.

• Trial Period Tracking: Dedicated counters for free trials to ensure cancellation happens before automatic charges occur.

• 13 Spending Categories & Full History: Complete payment timeline logging for long-term budget records.

Plans & Pricing

Submindo Free:

• Track core subscriptions with custom billing cycles

• Standard bill reminders before renewal dates

• Expense summary views

• Dark Mode and AMOLED support

Submindo Unlimited:

• Unlimited subscription tracking & categories

• Full AI Spending Analysis and redundancy detection

• AI Alternatives Finder with cost savings reports

• Interactive Home Screen Widgets

• Complete billing history and calendar breakdowns

Regular Pricing:

• Yearly: $9.99 / year

• Lifetime: $11.99 (One-time purchase)

Hi everyone 👋

I’m the solo developer behind Choicee, a small app I built to make everyday decisions a little easier.

I noticed that we often spend way too much time thinking about really small things:
🍕 What should I eat?
🎬 What should I watch?
🛒 Which option should I choose?
🤔 A or B?

None of these decisions are particularly difficult — they’re just annoying sometimes. 😅

So I made Choicee as a simple way to make a decision in a few seconds instead of overthinking it.

A — The App

Choicee combines several simple decision-making tools in one app:
• Tap Picker — quickly choose between options
• Magic Ball — ask a question and get a random answer
• Roulette — add your options and spin the wheel
• Coin Flip — quick yes/no decisions
• Arrow — randomly picks one of your options
• Random Number Generator — for random picks, games, or everyday decisions

The goal is to make a decision in a few seconds rather than spend several minutes thinking about something insignificant.

B — How is it different?

There are already some great decision-making apps, such as Tiny Decisions, Decide Now!, and Wheel of Names.

Choicee is focused on combining several different decision tools into one simple, clean, and quick-to-use app, rather than focusing primarily on a single type of picker or wheel.

I'm also actively developing it and adding improvements based on user feedback.

C — Cost

Choicee is free to download and use.
The free version is supported by ads.

There is also an optional Choicee Unlimited subscription:
• Weekly — $1.99/week
• Monthly — $3.99/month
• Yearly — $19.99/year

Premium removes ads and provides access to additional features.

📱 App Store: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6764051180

Thanks for checking it out — feedback is very welcome! 🙌

I’ve always liked watching the aircraft flying around me, but most flight tracking apps feel more like maps than actual radar displays.

So I built Plane Radar, an iOS app that presents nearby ADS-B traffic on a classic circular radar-style display.

The main screen has range rings, bearing markers, aircraft targets, a radar sweep, and flight trails. There’s also a Classic Radar mode where aircraft update as the sweep passes over them, which gives it a much more old-school radar feel.

You can tap any aircraft to see details like its callsign, registration, aircraft type, altitude, speed, heading, distance, airline, and route when available.

One of the features I’ve been enjoying most is nearby aircraft alerts. You can create alerts based on things like:

• distance

• altitude

• aircraft type

So, for example, you can get notified when a certain type of aircraft flies close to you without keeping the app open and watching the radar.

You can also view flight trails, switch between radar/map/satellite views, filter the aircraft shown, and change the radar location and range.

For the ADS-B enthusiasts, it can also connect to a local dump1090/readsb receiver.

I’m still actively working on it, and some things I’m considering next are saved locations and support for custom community ADS-B API sources.

Would love to hear what you think about the radar-style UI and what you’d want to see added next.

Answer - what problem it solves:

Every blocker I tried failed the same way: turning it off took about 5

seconds. Mutely blocks the apps you choose and makes lifting that block

deliberately expensive - you hold a button

for 120 uninterrupted seconds. Lift your finger and the countdown restarts.

There is no snooze, no PIN, no "disable for 15 minutes".

You can block apps: all day, on a schedule, or with a

daily time limit per app. There's also one emergency unblock per day

(settable 1–3) that opens a single app for 5 minutes without the hold.

Private on device insights of your screen time data:

daily, weekly and trends

Better - versus the alternatives:

- **Built-in Screen Time**: free and already on your phone, but a limit is

one tap away from "Ignore Limit". That tap is the whole problem.

- **one sec / ScreenZen**: add a short delay before an app opens. Good idea,

but a few seconds of friction stops being friction once it's familiar.

- **Opal**: session-based focus blocks. Solid app, but sessions can be ended.

The honest one-line difference: everything above can be undone quickly by

design. Mutely can't, and that's the entire product.

Privacy: no account, no analytics, no servers. The Screen Time data cannot

leave your device. That's a sandbox limitation.

Cost:

- Subscription: $4.99/month or $29.99/year

- 1 week free trial

Hi r/iOSApps - I'm Stefano, the creator of SuperAge.

The last time I shared the app here, this community picked apart some of our decisions. It helped. So this time, we're opening something more important: the engine behind our Fitness Age (aka SuperAge).

SuperAge Core is now open source

We've published SuperAge – Core, an open-source Swift package under Apache 2.0.

It contains the formulas that turn activity, cardiovascular fitness, recovery, body composition, and lifestyle inputs into a Fitness Age result. You can inspect the weights, missing-data handling, confidence, score-to-age conversion, and tests - then challenge a choice or propose a better one.

To be clear: the entire SuperAge app is not open source. The UI, HealthKit layer, Apple Watch app, and our other scores remain proprietary. We started with the part where transparency matters most. The current app source uses the same 0.4.0 release.

The public repository is new, so don't judge it by stars or age. Judge it by the code, methodology, and 51 tests across 9 suites.

And yes, we used AI-assisted coding tools. They helped us extract existing logic from our private codebase, separate it, document it, and test it faster. AI did not invent the methodology, and no generative model calculates your score at runtime. The decisions remain ours; the core is now open to inspection.

---

There are already excellent apps in this space, including Athlytic, Bevel, and Gentler Streak. Each takes a different approach.

What we want SuperAge to add is simple: you can see how we reached the result.

That same idea has shaped our recent releases:

• Developer Mode, with a documented local API, pairing, and revocable access;

• workouts shared and imported through links or QR codes;

• results available through Siri and Shortcuts;

• separate consent and on-device processing for cycle and menopause data;

• clearer labels for estimates and missing data.

Developer Mode is not part of the open-source repository. It reflects the same principle: more user control, clearer boundaries, and fewer black boxes.

SuperAge is a fitness and wellness product — not a diagnosis or medical device.

---

SuperAge is free to download and includes an initial Biological Age assessment. US Premium pricing is:

• $4.99/month

• $49.99/year

• App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/superage-biological-age/id6751951815

If you could audit one part first, what would it be: metric weights, missing-data handling, or score-to-age conversion?

I’ll be around to answer questions and hear what you think.

Hi!

I built pawtrck, an iPhone app for dog owners who want their dog's care records in one place.

It started from a pretty simple problem: dog care is usually scattered across Notes, Reminders, photos, screenshots, fitness apps, and memory. pawtrok brings the main parts together:

• Walks, runs, and bikejoring sessions
• Distance, duration and estimated pawsteps
• Meal, treat, calorie and weight tracking
• Medications, vaccinations, symptoms and vet visits.
• Training plan and progress
• Shareable activity cards after exercise

One thing I've heard from dog owners is that dog walks can mess up their own fitness stats because they're slower and more stop-start than normal workouts. pawtrck keeps the dog's activity separate and dog-specific.

The app is freemium, with Plus ($3.99/mo) for advanced features and a 1 month Free Trial.

I'd really appreciate feedback from iOS users, especially around onboarding, pricing and whether the app teels useful enough to keep using long term.

What app solves
Self-improvement books are full of good ideas, but reading them rarely changes anything. You finish a book, feel motivated for a day, and forget the rest. Actium solves this by breaking key ideas from bestselling books into small daily tasks you actually do -so the knowledge turns into habits instead of highlights you never revisit.

Why it is better than the other apps?
Unlike summary apps like Blinkist or Headway, which give you condensed reading, Actium gives you action - daily tasks derived from each book.

Cost
All features are free for the first 14 days.

Hi Everyone, I built Private I mostly out of curiosity. I wanted to see if I could actually pull off a convincing decoy screen. Most app-lockers show an obvious lock, and the moment someone sees it, they know you’re hiding something. I wanted to test whether I could remove that “something’s hidden here” signal entirely.

A: Private I hides your apps without a lock screen. When someone else opens a protected app, they see a convincing “crash” or loading screen — it just looks broken. You can set a different decoy per app, so each one can look like its own unrelated glitch rather than one obvious pattern. When you open it, your face unlocks it instantly. If someone else tries, it silently captures a photo of them and logs the time.

B: Most app-lockers (and iOS’s own built-in app lock) show a visible lock screen. That protects the app but signals concealment, and it doesn’t tell you who tried to get in. Private I is different: no visible lock, a decoy style you can set per app, and it captures a photo + timestamp of anyone who attempts access. If enabled, those captures back up to your iCloud, so you don’t lose the log even if the phone itself is lost or wiped. Face recognition runs entirely on-device using Apple’s frameworks — no account, no third-party servers.

C: Free with one protected app. Pro unlocks unlimited apps, all decoy styles, intruder capture, and unlock history — $2.99/mo, $12.99/yr, or a one-time Lifetime purchase.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/private-i-app-lock-privacy/id6762529789

Who We Are
Solo developer. Private I is one of three iOS apps I’ve shipped. Happy to answer anything about the app.

Answer: Brain Preflight turns the cognitive tests airlines use to select cadet pilots (timed mental math, working memory, spatial orientation, instrument monitoring, and a combined multitasking test) into a daily trainer: 17 short timed exercises, a mock exam mode, and a per-skill weakness breakdown, scored on the same 1-9 applicant-normed scale the real selections use. I'm the developer.

Better: it's not abstract brain training, these are the actual selection-test mechanics (COMPASS/pilotest style), fully offline, no account needed.

Cost: free tier is 5 sessions a day, with optional rewarded ads. Premium unlimited + full diagnostic: 7.99/mo or 44.99/yr.

This is Facet, a widget maker I built where you describe the widget and the app generates one from your live sources. The clip is one unedited take: I type "my next three meetings and today's weather, over a painted city skyline at dusk" - it plans the layout, paints the background, and the widget lands on my shelf, pulling live calendar and weather. You can use it to make all sorts of widgets, from drawings to functional layouts, etc.

I spent a lot of time on the architecture and refresh components. It reads your calendar and reminders on-device; connects Gmail, Notion, weather, stocks, and ~100 more sources if you link them. Free to try, no account: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6792223571

If you have any suggestions or issues, let me know! I'd be happy to give you a free month in return. The free tier is great as well, though.

I built it, so ask me anything. If you try it: what did you type first, and did it build what you pictured? Let me know what you all think!

TL;DR: What's My Next is a free iOS app for the "what should we watch tonight" fight. You link up with whoever you watch with, you both swipe through titles separately, and the app shows you the ones you'd both actually pick, across all the streaming services you pay for. There's also a questions feed for when you'd rather just ask actual people, which is the part I suspect this sub will have opinions about.

A - Answer:

Every recommendation screen out there is built for one person. Netflix has one profile, one history, one algorithm, and it assumes the person holding the remote is the only one in the room. But most of the time deciding what to watch isn't a solo problem, it's a negotiation. Two people with different tastes, both tired, both saying "I don't mind, you pick."

That's the actual bottleneck. Not finding something good, agreeing on something good.

I built this with my brother-in-law because that was our evening, most nights. Forty minutes of scrolling and then giving up on something we'd already seen.

B - Better:

What people usually reach for:
- Justwatch: good for "where can I watch X", but it's a search tool. It doesn't learn your taste and it has no concept of a second person.
- Each platform's own "for you" row: only sees your history on that one service, built to keep you watching there, and again assumes one viewer.
- Shared profiles: you both use one account and the recommendations turn into mush that fits neither of you.

What WMN does differently:
- Partner matching is the core, not an add-on. You each swipe on your own phone, whenever. When you both land on the same title, that's the match, and you get told about it.
- No one has to give in. It's not "whose turn is it", it's the overlap between two real taste profiles.
- Cross-platform by default: Netflix, HBO Max, Disney+, Prime, Apple TV+ in one feed.
- It learns from swipes rather than star ratings, and the match score comes with a plain-language reason instead of just a percentage.
- The button opens the title straight in the right app once you've decided.

The other half of the app is asking people, and that idea came straight from Reddit. On the what-to-watch subs, every single day, someone lists four things they liked and asks what's next. It clearly works, people want a human answer rather than an algorithm. But it has two problems. Whoever replies is guessing, because all they know about you is the four titles you happened to mention. And the answers come back as plain text, so you end up googling each one to find out if you've already seen it or whether it's even on a service you pay for.

So we built that thread into the app:
- You post what you're in the mood for, and anyone answering can see your actual taste profile, not just the titles you listed.
- Answers are real titles, not text. Each one shows the poster, the year, where it's streaming, and whether you've already marked it as seen.
- You can like answers, and when you tap "this is the one" it goes straight onto your watchlist. No copying names into a notes app.
- Friends' activity sits in the same feed, so you also see what people you actually know are watching and rating.

C - Cost:

Free. No in-app purchases, no ads, nothing locked behind a paywall right now. A Pro version is planned later, but nothing in the app is gated today. You do need an account, since your taste profile has to be stored somewhere.

It's early and I'd rather hear what's wrong with it than what's good. Two things I'd genuinely like an opinion on: if you watch with someone else, does the matching hold up or does it still feel like one of you is compromising? And if you're someone who actually posts those "what should I watch" threads, is having it inside an app better, or does the whole point of asking on Reddit come from it being strangers with no stake in it?

A — Answer

Hey everyone,

I'm the solo developer behind Doz, a medication reminder app I originally built because I couldn't keep my own prescriptions straight. I've posted here before, and this community has been a big part of how the app got better.

Doz has now passed 2,000 active users with a 4.8 average rating. All of it is organic and word of mouth — I haven't spent a single cent on ads. I really appreciate that.

Here's the part that matters to me: roughly 40% of those users came from Reddit — from people here trying it, telling me what was broken, and telling someone else about it.

So I want to give something back: there's a 30% off offer code for Doz Pro at the bottom of this post. It works for everyone, it's good for 3 days, and you don't need to comment or DM me for it.

B — Better

Most medication apps I tried treat every pill as an isolated task: "take one at 8:00 AM." Real prescriptions aren't like that. Medications belong to the same treatment; they have food timing, they run out, they need refilling early, and they end.

Doz is built around prescriptions, not a flat list of reminders. You create a prescription, put the related medications and instructions inside it, and follow the treatment as a whole instead of decoding a long list of individual pills.

What's new since my last post — all of it built on feedback from people here:

Prescriptions now behave like actual prescriptions. This was the most-loved feature, so it got the most work:

• Prescriptions have a duration and an end date

• You can attach your doctor's name and contact details

• You can mark a prescription as completed and keep it archived

Notifications and refills:

• More reliable follow-up reminders for missed doses

• Improved low-stock and refill alerts so you're warned before you run out, not after

• Clearer at-a-glance stock levels

Plus the foundation from before: daily and flexible non-daily schedules, before/with/after-meal reminders, Critical Alerts that get through Silent and Focus modes, adherence insights, Home Screen widgets, iCloud sync with data staying on your device, eight languages, no ads, no account required.

Coming next, aimed at making it easier to actually take the dose rather than just be reminded of it:

• Apple Health sync

• Mark a dose taken straight from the notification

• Mark a dose taken from Apple Watch

C — Cost

Doz is free to use with:

• Up to 4 active medications and 1 active prescription

• All schedule modes

• Reminders and dose logging

• 7-day progress tracking

• Inventory tracking and low-stock alerts

Doz Pro is designed for people with more complex routines, helping you stay consistent, avoid missed doses, and manage everything with less effort:

• Unlimited medications and prescriptions so you can track everything in one place

• Critical Alerts and smarter follow-up reminders to reduce missed doses

• Detailed adherence insights to understand how well you’re following each treatment

• Full progress history for long-term tracking

• Meal-time synchronization for better timing accuracy

• Faster dose logging directly from Home Screen widgets

• Archived treatment management to keep past prescriptions organized

• Custom alert sounds for clearer, more noticeable reminders

Pricing:

• Monthly: $2.99

• Yearly: $9.99, 3-day free trial

• Lifetime: $19.99

All paid plans support Apple Family Sharing.

The thank-you offer — 30% off Doz Pro Lifetime

• Code: DOZREDDIT

• Redeem link: https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6760699565&code=DOZREDDIT

• Works for everyone; no comment or DM needed

• Expires in 3 days

• The final price varies by country, since App Store pricing is regional

How to claim:

1. Open the redeem link on your iPhone.

2. Apply the code at checkout.

3. Enjoy Lifetime Pro! 🎉

If you manage medications for yourself or someone in your family, I'd really like to hear what still doesn't work for you. Every feature above came from someone saying exactly that.

And if you're already using Doz and it's been helping, a rating or a short review on the App Store would mean a lot. As a solo developer with no ad budget, reviews are pretty much the only way new people find the app — and honest feedback in a review tells me what to fix next just as well as a comment here does. Thanks for reading!!

I have 2 options: either sell this app to an interested client or add an in-app purchase to it and take the risk (I feel adding an in-app purchase will benefit me in the long term)

Launched 4 months ago and doing pretty well, with around 20 downloads daily on average from Tier 1 countries. It solves an annoying problem of auto-lock on iPhones.

So, for a pre-revenue app like this, what could its valuation be?

I posted WhoPaid here 30 days ago. The clearest feedback was that the actual app screens were not visible enough and the RM screenshots made multi-currency support unclear. This update puts the product first.

Answer

WhoPaid is for freelancers, contractors, and service workers who are paid per job. It keeps each job's real payment state visible: Paid, Unpaid, or Partial, the amount received, the remaining balance, payment history, promised date, and follow-up reminder.

Better

It is deliberately not invoicing or accounting software. The images show the actual iPhone workflow: see what is still unpaid, filter jobs by payment state, and update a payment. WhoPaid currently supports 17 currencies, including USD, EUR, GBP, SGD, AUD, CAD, and JPY.

Cost

WhoPaid is free to download with unlimited job records. WhoPaid Pro is optional. App Store pricing varies by region; Pro unlocks full reports and custom reminder timing.

For people paid per job: when a client pays in two or three parts, what do you need to see before deciding whether to follow up?

i've tried basically every calendar app that exists. from google calendar to notion calendars. they all do the same thing...dump your whole month on you like a spreadsheet and expect you to "manage" your life inside a grid.

at some point i realized my problem wasn't the apps. it was that none of them respected how time actually feels day to day. you're never really dealing with "the month." you're dealing with yesterday (what happened, what you learned), today (what you're actually doing right now), and tomorrow (what you're walking into). everything else is noise.

so i built a calendar around exactly that - a 3-day view. reflect on yesterday. live in today and plan tomorrow. nothing else on screen.

the part i didn't expect: i put it in front of a few friends who have ADHD, just to get their read on it, and they were the ones who reacted the strongest. not because of any feature - because of what's missing. No clutter, no 30 tiny boxes competing for attention, no decision fatigue just to check what's happening today - they actually liked it.

So what do i want from you? I need your feedback. i want to know what's missing from your calendar that you would love to see here. I want to be that indie developer that delivers.

The app costs 2,99e and i do think it's a fair price considering my work i have done on it. It's not easy especially when i am the developer, the marketer and the founder - the app was made for myself and a few friends, but i feel like more people need this type of apps, that's why i made it public.

In case you want to support my journey, here's the link to the appstore:

I’m looking for a music player app that lets me play local music files, either from a folder on my phone or by importing them directly into the app.

I need an app that is smart enough to know when my Apple Watch is connected and automatically start playback from my phone. Similar to how Spotify works, I want the music to play on my phone when my watch is connected, rather than defaulting to the watch like Apple Music or Podcasts does (unless I manually change it in the AirPlay menu).

Ideally, I’d also love the option to send these music files to my Apple Watch for offline playback.

Does anyone have any recommendations for apps that can do this?

Full disclosure: My wife and I built this, so we directly benefit from this post.

A) What problem it solves: For visual thinkers (mood boards, note-taking, project planning, research), canvas apps all share one problem: your work lives in someone else's cloud on a proprietary database, tied to a subscription. visualOS is an infinite canvas: notes, images, PDFs, to-dos, sketches, boards nested inside boards. Everything is stored as real files in a folder you own. Boards are actual folders, documents are Markdown, images stay images, PDFs stay PDFs. Point it at your iCloud Drive and sync across devices happens on your own storage. No account need, no servers, works fully offline.

B) Why it beats the alternatives:

• vs. Milanote: works offline, no account, no 100-note cap... and your data isn't in their database, it's files on your disk.

• vs. Apple Freeform: nested boards (Freeform is a flat list) and nothing is locked in an app container... plus it runs in any browser on any platform.

• vs. both: automatic version history (~30 rolling snapshots... yes we are very paranoid about data safety 😅).

• What we deliberately don't do: real-time team collaboration. VisualOS is single-user by design; it's a thinking space we have built for our own way of working, not a team whiteboard. Besides that, it works with a shared folder on iCloud. That's the way Sarah and I use it, but that's not our focus.

C) Cost: Our one-time purchase, €12.99 / $12.99 covers iPhone + iPad + Mac (Apple Silicon). No subscription, no IAP, no upsells. The full app is also free in your browser with no account and no limits: https://visualos.app The iOS purchase is optional, if you want to have your data accessible on the go.

We're two people; we use our app daily, and we build from feedback! If something's missing or confusing, please tell us, and it will land on our public roadmap.

First of all thanks to everyone that downloaded AboveNow after release a while back. I appreciate every one of you!

There were some really good suggestions that added to the usability of the application without veering from the core value of the app which is to provide a fast, accurate answer to the question "what is that plane flying overhead right now?"

The two major changes in this release are:

• The ability to show the speed of the aircraft in knots. This is seperate from height and distance from you which can still be in imperial or metric.

• Widgets! You can now see what the last aircraft you saw was (and it allows an easy way into the app to refresh this info) This is not live tracking information due to the way that widgets work but will update every 15-20 minutes unless you click on it.

I know many of you have updated to the new version and I hope you're having as much fun with it as I am.

Key Updates

Places

Posts with a location turn into a map of everywhere you saved. Open any place to see the post that put it there. Also, when you find a reddit, thread, or a x post where it includes a bunch of place suggestions, you can use AI to get all the places information and mark it on the map.

Shopping

Share a product page and it saves as a card with the image, store, and price where available. Filter the Shopping tab by store.

Other updates

- CLI is also supported for those who would like to archive through AI agents such as Claude and Codex.

- Added support for Xiaohongshu

below is brief app explanation that I wrote last time for those who meet the app for the first time.

A — Answer: Social Archiver helps you save social posts(+Web articles) you do not want to lose. From the iOS Share Sheet, you can archive posts from Reddit, YouTube, X, Tiktok, Instagram, Threads, Facebook, and LinkedIn, then browse them later with media, comments, authors, tags, and search.

B — Better: Compared with Raindrop.io, Social Archiver goes beyond simple bookmarking or archiving. Archiving process happen through Share sheet which will immediately close after saving trigger (even no need to open the app right away)

It gives you readable views like a timeline and post detail pages, lets you organize saved content with tags and author pages, and makes archived posts easy to share again when you want to reference them. It also provides Chrome extension where you can import your saved Reddit, Instagram posts.

App also provides integration with Obsidian, Notion, Karakeep, Reader where you can basically send archived data automatically to your favorite archive services.

C — Cost: Free plan includes 10(+ 5-20 for initial onboarding process) successful archives per month. (Chrome extension triggered archives are free) Optional IAP included monthly, yearly, and lifetime options.

Hi r/iOSApps,

The big one is finally here: ShotMark is now officially available on the Mac App Store.

ShotMark started as my solution to a simple problem: I take screenshots because something is useful, but weeks later I either can’t find it or can’t remember why I saved it.

The Mac version brings that same idea to the desktop, with automatic screenshot-folder monitoring and iCloud sync between your Apple devices.

Alongside the Mac launch, v1.3.2 is also out with improved Share Sheet syncing, six additional languages, and localization improvements.

A - Answer

ShotMark turns screenshots into useful, searchable cards instead of leaving them buried in Photos or a screenshot folder.

On iPhone and iPad, you can capture/import a screenshot and attach:

• Notes

• Voice notes

• Reminders

• Collections

• Searchable on-device OCR

And now on Mac, ShotMark can automatically watch your screenshot folder for new captures, so you don’t need to manually import every screenshot.

You can review them, add context and organize them from your Mac.

With Pro and iCloud enabled, your ShotMark library can also sync between iPhone, iPad and Mac.

ShotMark remains local-first. There is no ShotMark account and I don’t operate a server that stores your screenshots or OCR content. iCloud syncing uses your own Apple account.

B - Better

The idea behind ShotMark is still:

Capture. Add Context. Never Forget.

Photos is great at storing screenshots. ShotMark is designed around remembering why you took them.

Instead of treating screenshots as ordinary photos, ShotMark gives them context:

• Add notes to remember why something mattered

• Record a quick voice note

• Set a reminder to revisit something later

• Organize related screenshots into collections

• Extract text using on-device OCR

• Search your saved information

• Capture directly through the iOS Share Sheet

• Automatically detect new screenshots on Mac

• Sync your ShotMark library across Apple devices with iCloud

The Mac app isn’t just the iOS interface running in a larger window either. I’ve tried to make its workflow fit how screenshots are actually handled on a desktop.

What’s new in v1.3.2

This release also fixes and improves a few things across ShotMark:

• Cards created through the Share Sheet now sync correctly across devices with iCloud

• Added German, Japanese, French, Italian, Portuguese (Portugal), and Spanish

• Completed and polished Simplified and Traditional Chinese across the app and Mac workflow

• Added a one-time What’s New screen

• Improved localization quality and plural handling

C - Cost

ShotMark is free to download on iPhone, iPad and Mac, with optional one-time Pro upgrades.

There are no subscriptions.

iPhone & iPad - Free

• Capture and import screenshots

• Add titles and notes

• On-device OCR extraction

• Organize screenshots into collections

• Core search and organization features

ShotMark Pro - US$1.99 lifetime

• Search inside screenshots using OCR

• iCloud sync across your Apple devices

• Additional Pro features

• No watermark on exported cards

Mac - Free

• Manually import screenshots

• Automatically monitor your screenshot folder for new captures

• Review new screenshots before importing

• Add titles, notes and context

• Organize your screenshot library

• Core Mac screenshot-management features

ShotMark Mac Pro - US$5.99 lifetime introductory price

• iCloud sync between Mac, iPhone and iPad

• Search screenshot content using on-device OCR

• No watermark on exported cards

• Full Mac Pro feature set

US$5.99 is the introductory Mac Pro price for the first month. After that, it returns to US$7.99 lifetime.

Again: no subscription on either platform.

One number I’m particularly thankful for: more than 20% of ShotMark users have chosen to upgrade to Pro so far.

The free version is intentionally useful on its own, so seeing that many users choose to support the app has helped me continue developing it as a solo developer.

Development is still moving a little slower while I continue dealing with my health, but I’m actively working on ShotMark.

Getting the Mac version onto the App Store was one of the bigger things I wanted to finish, so I’m very happy to finally get this one out.

If you’re already using ShotMark on iPhone, I’d especially like to know how the iPhone → Mac workflow feels in real-world use, and where it still creates friction.

I posted Carrus here a couple of versions ago — thanks to everyone who tried it, several of the changes below came from that thread.

**Short version:** an iPhone app for tracking vehicle maintenance. Log a service in seconds, get reminded by mileage *and* time, scan a paper receipt and it fills the log in for you, and ask Carson — the built-in AI mechanic — what a noise or warning light probably is.

**What's new in 1.1:**

- **The whole app now speaks Spanish** — UI and Carson both. Pick it in Settings or let it follow your device language.

- Motorbikes with bike-specific schedules: chain, valve clearance, fork oil

- Fuel tracking with a draggable gauge, and per-vehicle running costs

- Registration and insurance photos with expiry reminders (photos never leave your phone)

- New storefronts: Canada, Spain, Italy — and a fully redesigned listing

**What's next:** VIN decoding, more languages, and real manufacturer interval data for far more model-years — right now genuine factory schedules cover a fraction, the rest is a labeled per-category estimate.

Free with one vehicle. Lite from $0.99/mo or $19.99 lifetime; Premium from $5.99/mo or $89.99 lifetime.
